If Charles Dickens had huddled with Rodgers and Hammerstein, Andrew Lloyd Webber, and Matt Stone and Trey Parker to write a holiday show, they just might have come up with A Broadway Christmas Carol.

But their efforts couldn’t have been any funnier than the hit musical created by Kathy Feininger, which will be performed in the University Theatre Dec. 7-23 in its regional premiere.

The show is just what the title suggests: Dickens’ holiday classic performed through beloved show tunes. Here’s a hint: a doddering Ghost of Christmas Past warbling “Try to Remember” from The Fantasticks, Tiny Tim wearing an Annie fright wig and even references to modern classics such as Avenue Q and The Book of Mormon.

Full of “infectiously giddy moments” (Washington Post), A Broadway Christmas Carol charmingly balances hilarious parody with the warmth and humanity of the world’s best-known holiday tale. Fresh, funny, and charmingly recognizable, it’s a perfect holiday treat for you and your family.
